How to learn to eat with chopsticks
It made me
not hungry....?
 "Noodles taste better with chopsticks."
How I did it: I learned as a child in Thailand. Forks were not available, so chopsticks it was. So if you want to learn the expensive way, I'd recommend traveling to a not-so-Westernized location somewhere in Asia, where you will have no choice ;-) |

How I did it: My family and I love to try new restaurants so I was thrilled to eat at one of the Japanese restaurant's with revolving entrees at the mall. I've always wanted to learn how to eat with chopsticks so when my order of katsudon arrived, I experimented on the best way to eat the rice. After eating the meal, I knew I learned how to do it and it felt good to accomplish something even if it were something as small as this. Read how I did it…

i’m not even sure what we were eating. i remember though, sitting at emily’s house,we must have been 6 or 7, in the kitchen, using her parents chopsticks. i’m guessing they were from japan because i know her mom spent some time there. it’s a skill like riding a bike though, i forgot that i can do it, until it’s mentioned or they are offered, and wham, it’s forefront, and i’m the only one that can successfully eat my dinner.

I think I have fulfilled this goal because I ate an entire meal with my chopsticks, and I was pretty good. :)

After being in China for a while, I’ve gotten pretty used to this. Though certain impracticalities still remain. Using them to shovel rice is one, so is trying to slurp or move substantial amounts of long noodles. However, I use them with relative ease. I have a fork in my apartment, but I never use it—I always go with the chopsticks.

Accomplished this tonight when we were eating Thai food…yet I had to read the instructions first! But, being an amateur at this, I’m going to keep this goal on here until I feel I can eat adequately without reading the ‘how to’ instructions first.
Good eats ;)

Well I like Asian food and if you like Asian food you must know how to use chopsticks.

It was funny to be the only “asian” person in the table and not know how to use chopsticks. Now I do and it’s great! It’s a fun way to “play” with your food without feeling guilty.

I learnt how to eat with chop sticks a few years ago but didnt really persist with it and cant grasp how to do it anymore. So im hoping within a month or two ill be fully capable of using chop sticks to eat once again. :)

I learn stuff like this pretty easy. Just look at some pictures and mimic what they are doing.
I’m not very fast eating this way, but it is kinda fun.
